I was in Navy Boot Camp at Great Lakes in 1957. Didn't know much about country music. During "Service Week" the guys I worked with included a few from the South. One entertained us by repeating this song. It an a few other numbers they introduced me to was my start with a life long love affair with country music. Our country has changed a lot since then and so has the music. Thanks for hanging on to those record from back then.

[PoliceExplorer1405]

I'm 20 and know this song, it's an awesome song, if you have a heart give it a thumbs up. It's sad true, but it's an awesome song.

[fireman356760]

i love his music and i am only 25

[JaclynsMommy]

Red Sovine was my Great Grandmothers Brother, which was my grandmother's uncle. He is my Great Great Uncle. Yes he did sing, not always do just stories. And I would really appreciate it if people would quit talking shit about my dead family. Thank you

[Psychodad37]

[randomlight1]

[KatieMae131]

@randomlight1 You need to open your heart! THIS SONG IS ABOUT A GIRL WHO GETS HIT BY A TRAIN! WHAT KIND OF PERSON COULD BE SO HEARTLESS!

[WEIRDTHINGSTOSTAREAT]

@randomlight1 JACK ASS

[94eaton]

@randomlight1 if that's how you feel, then why did you listen to it?

[JaclynsMommy]

@randomlight1 listen here jackass, this is my great grandmothers brother, and he had a heart full of gold. This isn't garbage, this is old school.

[mollymitch1]

@randomlight1 You are only garbage if that's what you think about about this. LISTEN, It is a story about a little girl who was hit by a train. it happens in someone's life all the time. You never know one day it may be someone you know. Get out of the gutter.

[Kalkas53]

Gary

[Zenuen]

Now this is real country its just so awesome I cant listen to this without cryin. Not like the junk today.

[mostlyrightous]

Tearjerkers enrich the soul and take us out of our own little world for a little while and our own "troubles" dont seem so bad.Even big bad tough Marines cry sometimes before the hell of war replaces tears with the "1000 yard stare" shared by victors and victims alike. Be thankful you can cry and never be ashamed. Consider sometimes the plight of those whose burdens are so much greater than ours. Never ridicule anyone for crying either, their tears might be your own someday.

[mostlyrightous]

Yes this song is awesome. Modern country "music" kinda sorta comes out with a tearjerker sometimes but it seems so contrived as to lose its effect. Ol Red was the undisputed master of the tearjerker. Even the greatest country artist of all time, Hank Sr., was a close second in that dept, imo, and there is no greater Hank fan than myself out there. At any rate these two were in a class all there own along with a very select few.( Marty Robbins) Modern "artists" sound comical by comparison to me.

[MaoSuratt911]

Ain't nothin more loyal than daddy's lil girl man...

[walter42194]

[TTmaniax]

[walter42194]

[babytheo1]

my mum used to play this song and we would all cry on ther big bed and it took me ages to find it i cry everytime i think of it

[TheTruefanz]

this song is so cool

[lilmissdirtbiker]

i love this song

[DjMistoffelees]

Red Sovine was a true master storyteller. Nobody can provoke tears like this song and Teddy Bear.

[speed10009]

I love this song too..even if it makes me cry every time i listen to it ..Thanks

[montana44820]

Do u know that the songs he sings is true. Little rosa is about a little mexican gierl in W. Virginia.Fathon 309 is about a truck triver in Portsmouth Ohio. Teddy Bear is about a little boy in Cinn. Ohio

[duckigrrl]

Red Sovine could always make me cry.

[dannytatts]

this man would have to be 1 of the  greatest story tellers ever!!! love all his music!! thanks for sharing it!!

[dragonkeeperjoe81]

His music really makes you feel human, the love and compassion you feel when u hear his music really brings you down to earth..

[flying121]

He certainly had a very gentle and convincing manner about himself..

[sofinehonky]

Red is my grandfather, and it's always nice to see people who still enjoy his music.

[royrabbit18]

@sofinehonky man i have cried a million tears while i listen to his music he had such a great voice message me back thanks

[awnok]

This song, along with Teddy Bear, is pure corn. For some reason, I can't help but love it. Thirty years and I'm still a sucker for a sad song. What a bawbag!

[castletriglav]

This is the funniest damn song I've ever heard.

[sleaponit21]

I had the pleasure of meeting red in the 70,s he had problems with his eyesight, he walked into a lampost (didn,t hurt himself)

he said ? damn silly place to put a post, he was a lovely man

[Scorp316]

Lo and behold the King of Classic Narrations at work. I've got a CD of his for Christmas, and it's a real good listen. Thank you for posting this video.

[kb8tpw69]

As only Red Sovine can do it. I remember when he came to Vietnam and i caught both shows at Tan Sin Nhut AB NCO Club. Always remember that night. He was the best...

[Manongjojo]

Yes Red really loved the men in the military. BTW Thank you for your service to this country. . .:-)

[guym71]

how could he do this without crying

[Garr1984]

one needn't even bother to try to write or sing country unless they can do it like this

[madvoodo]

He looka me with ona bigga frown

[madvoodo]

THATS A SPICY MEATBALL BOSS!!

[sieuss06]

Everytime I hear this song I keep thinking about my brother's daughter, Courtney. My niece, Courtney was only 1 when she died. She was a stillborn baby.

[castletriglav]

@sieuss06 LMAO

[LordoflightAngle]

haha i have to laugh me an my grandpa were going down town one time playing this an people were just looking at us when we jumped out of the car ahh good times :)

[rkremer]

there`s only one man who can "sing/tell" these kind of songs..Red Sovine!

[amazed65]

This song is Awesome!!!! My Daddy use to sing this for us all the time, when I was a kid. Yeah...if you're gonna write a tear jerker, ya really need to try to write like this.

Thanks for posting this, Allen.

[TheMaryOKane]

@amazed65 Same :) I love me and daddy still sings it im 11

[sieuss06]

I love this song.

[sieuss06]

The bottom line is this guy's best friend's little girl, Rosa died and he's in a flower shop and he gives this guy a red rose for his little girl's grave.

[ELENAPALOMERA]

Beautiful song from one of country's best ever singers. I could listen to him all day.

[jackcatfish]

how much-a for a-one red rose?

[gillespiet1]

[harrtginn]

litle rosa is a very old song, my mom use to sing to me and my brother and sister, when we were going to town or riding in the car. love this song,
